Membership Justification letter

Dear ____, 

As you know, my work as JOB TITLE for DISTRICT is grounded in research-proven practices and part of an ongoing cycle of continuous learning and improvement. When it comes to supporting my growth as a JOB TITLE and the growth of our educators and students, I have benefited greatly from my professional membership with Learning Forward. 

I am seeking your support in continuing to fund this valuable asset for my work. 

As the only professional association devoted exclusively to improving professional development practices, Learning Forward provides me with a wealth of resources and learning opportunities tailored to my work. While their member benefits include publications and discounts on learning opportunities and their bookstore, the greatest benefit has been having a professional network where I, and therefore our community, can get valuable insights and guidance from others who are facing similar challenges. 

Their memberships are already affordable, as they are priced to cover only the barest of costs, ranging from $69 to $159. However, they also have options for additional savings. For example, I get large discounts if I renew over multiple years, or to help us with more immediate needs, we can set up a monthly payment plan for only $10 per month. 

I am happy to meet to discuss how our district, our educators, and our students would continue to benefit from this membership, as well as how it benefits my personal growth and the growth of our teams.
